[Andrea]

A very engaging sci-fi thriller told in an unusual style. The screenplay/transcribed footage format really brought the characters, especially Charlie, to life. I was deeply invested in what was happening to and around her. The abrupt change near the end (I won't describe it to avoid spoilers) was as disconcerting for me as it was for Amber Sierra. This book feels like, and is, a prelude of more books to come and it leaves me wanting more. It sets up compelling conditions for what I hope will be an exciting sci-fi adventure series - I can't wait!
